Hi, Worldcat.org lists your ISBN as 448 pages. If you have the book, could you please let us know what type of content there is on pages 435-448, if any?
I have it here - last numbered page is 434, then one "About the Author" page followed by five completely blank pages. At the front of the book there are eight unnumbered pages (quotes, Also By, title page, details ISBN etc, dedication, blank, another title page, blank) so that gets 8 + 434 + 6 = 448.
Many thanks for your detailed content description, very helpful. Goodreads doesn't add front matter to the book's printed page numbers, only end matter. Story + About the author content = adds up to 435 pages. We don't count blank pages at the very end, numbered or not. It can take a little time for the book page to display the added page count, but you should be able to see it instantly on your Bookshelves view.
That makes sense - thank you for adding the page count
